Why ACADRU was born?
UnivAdmitHelp is a study abroad counselling arm of Anavi Learning LLP which helps students to prepare an application to study abroad in top universities. In this whole process, we do one-to-one mentoring with students to build strong profiles for admission to IVY League Colleges. Our experience with these mentees highlighted some recurrent issues that we answered through ACADRU:

Issue: The mentees knew the course book contents very well but had little understanding of their application in a fast-changing world. There is a lack of focus on multi-disciplinary education in general.
Solution: Building a self-mentoring platform with multi-disciplinary topics that could help prepare students know their options for jobs in the future. The topics in ACADRU such as Art/Design in engineering, Real Science behind reel make-up, and Interpreting machine psychology etc. are all designed with a view to highlight the connections across domains.

Issue: Difficult and time-consuming to access high-quality content from renowned sources due to information overload.
Solution: Curated content from the best sources in the world woven together in a narrative that makes the topic interesting.

Issue: General lack of awareness about the changing nature of jobs and new opportunities.
Solution: Showcase career opportunities beyond the obvious ones. For example, when we talk about psychology, students and professionals tend to think of jobs available in clinical psychology, counselling, or teaching, whereas there are more jobs in technology, marketing, and branding for a psychology graduate.

Who ALL will benefit from the platform?

It is believed that as many as 65% of today’s students will be employed in jobs that don’t yet exist, which means preparing our young people for the jobs of the future will make a huge economic impact in the years to come. While qualifications and knowledge remain important, new generation of students need the opportunity to grow into creative and critical citizens, ready to shape the future for themselves and for the economy worldwide.

The Acadru platform with its unique and futuristic learning modules is helping students and young professionals to be job ready for the future.
Acadru aims to be a self-mentoring platform for students wherein they can develop new skills, try their hands on mini projects and get credible certifications to add to their CV without the help of any counselors or teachers. We are absolutely convinced that our modules can have a huge impact on the learning process and skill-building of the students.

With every learning module, we try to tell a story that uncovers unexpected connections, connections that spark ideas, ideas that inspire new interests and fulfill ambitions. We have focused on curation and age-old tradition of narrative building to give access to the highest possible quality content rather than recreate the same content.

As a results, students tend to overlook the importance of multi-disciplinary learning. ACadru addresses this issue by providing senior school students with ample information on subjects such as design/Art in engineering, machine psychology, food design and more, which further helps them to acquire skills for present and future jobs.
